Answer 2

0.375 =
`(3)/(8)`

First, rewrite the decimal into a fraction and put 1 in the denominator.

0.375 =
`(0.375)/(1)`

Next, you want to multiply to remove 3 decimal places. You will multiply both the top number and the bottom number by 1,000.

`(0.375)/(1)` ×
`(1000)/(1000)` =
`(375)/(1000)`

Lastly, Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 375 and 1000, if it exists, and reduce the fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by 125.

`(375)/(1000)` ÷
`(125)/(125)` ≈
`(3)/(8)`

Therefore, 0.375 =
`(3)/(8)`
